Inventory Impairments and Land Option Cost Write-Offs [Abstract] |
Inventory | INVENTORIES At the end of each quarter, the Company reviews the performance and outlook for all of its communities and land inventories for indicators of potential impairment and performs detailed impairment evaluations and analyses when necessary. As of September 30, 2023, the Company performed detailed impairment evaluations of communities and land inventories and determined that communities with a combined carrying value of $33.8 million were impaired. As a result, impairment charges of $5.0 million were recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2023 to reduce the carrying value of the related inventory to fair value. During fiscal 2023, impairment charges totaled $19.0 million compared to $3.8 million and $5.6 million in fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively. During fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, earnest money and pre-acquisition cost write-offs related to land purchase contracts that the Company has terminated or expects to terminate were $61.3 million, $66.6 million and $23.0 million, respectively. Inventory impairments and land option charges are included in cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations.
